Legalese and You
18+ Age Limit
This muck contains adult content that is intended for individuals 18 years of age and older and can contain materials of sexually explicit nature. If you are not of legal age or if it is illegal for you to view such material, please log out immediately!
By entering this muck you are choosing to be exposed to material of adult and explicit nature. The creators and service providers of this muck will not be held liable for your choice to move forward. Misrepresenting your age in order to gain access to this site may be a violation of local, state and/or federal law. If you are not 18 years of age or older, you may NOT continue to roleplay and will be banned.
Multiplay & Alt Interaction
It is perfectly fine if you create more than one character on the grid, but there are a few rules that will apply when this is done:
You have up to four character slots (not including wizard-characters), and you may apply for a fifth one at your account reaching one year of activity.
This means that your CharacterA may not mingle with your CharacterB by any means whatsoever. It is fine if your characters happen to have the same circle of friends, but it is not fine for your alts to meet/converse/fight/aid one another.
Alts may not participate within the same corporation.
When roleplaying, it is not allowed to have your alts employed by the same corporation.
Alts may not occupy the same room.
When roleplaying it is not allowed to have your alts in the same area/room within the grid. For example, if your character is currently in a corporate facility, an alt may not be in the same room. This creates a higher probability of character interaction which is prohibited.
Grammar & Etiquette
The dreaded typo-gremlin has plagued us all, at one point or another, so this isn't necessarily a major issue. It becomes a problem when you misspell every other word, ignore proper punctuation or refuse to capitalize the beginning of your sentences! Internet shorthand should be avoided; things such as 'kthxbai' or 'U R kewl' will result in a warning and will be asked to be stopped. Spell out your words, it doesn't hurt to take the time to do so!
Channel Abuse
Do not spam the channels just to see if people are active. The Public channel is there if you have something to say, poking or making noises to gain attention will result (if done too often) a temporary muting of your channel priviledges.
Out-of-Character Abuse, Harassment and Ways to Mediate
Abusing other players is strictly prohibited! No ifs, ands or buts, it will not be tolerated in any way, shape or form. If you are being abused by another player log the conversation and show it to either a Wizard or one of the Creators. Make sure the log is not incomplete, it will not help the situation at all if you neglect to show both sides of the argument, it may in fact put you in a bad light as well as the person who is being abusive. Once the situation is put in the hands of those in charge it will be kept as quiet as possible, and if need be, it may in fact be used as an example of what not to do on the muck if the situation is severe enough.
Other forms of abuse:
Abuse by Wizards: If you feel you are being abused by a Wizard then you will need to provide a full, coherent statement as to the how and why you feel you are being abused. If there is a log of the situation, please provide that along with your statement to the Creators. If they are not available please state your claims to another Wizard and then it will be dealt with quietly. We're not big on gossip, so unless there is a lesson to be learned here, noone will likely hear about it otherwise.
Sexual harassment: In this day and age it is too easy to claim this on just anyone, but if you feel you are being sexually harrassed (unwillingly) by another player/Wizard please inform one of the other Wizards or the Creators immediately. Just like player abuse this will not be tolerated in any shape or form. If you have a log of the incident, supply this to the Wizard/Creator you are speaking with. The person will be informed and banned promptly. Please do not abuse this power when a lewd joke/statement is made in jest, you will be reprimanded immediately.
Racism: This will not be tolerated in any way ever. You will be given ONE warning to stop your behavior, the next time you do it you will be banned.
